The Reversal of a Son-in-law

Chapter 16 Do Not Cross My Bottom Line



Ning Haoran revealed his ferocity. The sharp blade in his hand had already cut through Li Yuechan's skin, and blood was oozing out.

Li Yuechan bit her tongue, using the pain to force herself to stay conscious. "N-Ning Haoran, you're my sister's boyfriend. What you're doing now is a crime. If you stop now, I can let you off," she stammered.

"Shut the f*ck up! No one has ever beaten me up since I was a kid. Long Chen must pay a painful price," Ning Haoran roared. At the same time, he lifted his knee and hit her at the waist hard.

Li Yuechan struggled to stand still and fell to the ground, kneeling.

"Long Chen, if you don't want her to die, you'd better kneel. I'll count to three, or you'll bear the consequences. One..."

"Don't you want me to suffer? Okay. I'll stand right here and let you stab me. If you're a man, let her go and come at me," Long Chen shouted.

"Do you think I'm an idiot? If I let her go, you'll immediately beat me down."

"I'll do it myself." Long Chen bent down and picked up a short knife. "Tell me, what do I have to do for you to let her go?"

At this second, the thing he was most afraid of was something would happen to Li Yuechan. He wasn't familiar with controlling his mysterious power, so he didn't dare to take the risk. If he failed, her life would be in danger.nove(l)bi(n.)com

Seeing this, Ning Haoran was stunned before he cackled in excitement, his face twisted with madness. "You're willing to do that for a wife on paper? How touching. Give your left and right leg some slices. If you do that, I'll let her go."

"Long Chen, don't." Li Yuechan gritted her teeth.

Long Chen didn't hesitate. And he raised his knife, shoving it into his legs. Blood instantly sprayed around him, dying his skin red. He fell to the ground as if he had lost his life.

"Haha, idiot. What a complete idiot." Ning Haoran laughed wildly and pushed Li Yuechan away. "You're indeed capable, Long Chen. But you're too stupid. Do you think that I'll let her go at this point? Heh. I'll groom her well and make her work in my KTV to become my slave. Of course, before that, I want a taste of her." His smile was sinister.

Li Yuechan's body was limp, and her tears kept falling. She struggled to crawl to Long Chen's side to check on him, but she couldn't.

Ning Haoran caught his breath. He moved toward Long Chen and sneered, "Long Chen, I'll make it a clean murder. You can go to hell in peace." He squatted down, drawing his dagger near Long Chen to end his life.

But at this critical moment, Long Chen opened his eyes wide, landing his punch on Ning Haoran's chest.

Pow!

Long Chen sent Ning Haoran instantly flying. As he hit the wall, he fell hard to the ground. He spurted a mouthful of blood like a whale and fainted on the spot.

Long Chen heaved a long sigh of relief. He stood up while enduring the pain in his legs and shuffled toward Li Yuechan.

Li Yuechan was so agitated that she couldn't speak. Only her tears kept streaming down her face. At the same time, the effect of her drugs was insuppressible. "I-It's so hot..." She tugged her clothes.

"You'll be fine, Yuechan." Long Chen swiftly acted and pressed on a few of her acupoints.

Li Yuechan suddenly froze as he had cast a spell on her. Meanwhile, Long Chen acted quickly to dispel the residual toxins in her body. Ten minutes later, he had removed most of it, but his face was white as a ghost.

And another two minutes later, Li Yuechan finally snapped out of it and regained her mobility. Looking at the blood-covered Long Chen, her face turned pale with anxiety. He moved her yet scared her. "Why did you do that, Long Chen? Why did you risk your life to save me? I'm not worth it," she cried as she tried to call the emergency services.

Long Chen quickly stopped her. He didn't want to go to the hospital. Because if he did, people might discover the abnormalities in his body. "Don't call the emergency services. "

"You're badly injured. You must go to the hospital." Li Yuechan rushed the words out.

"I'm not going. These are just external injuries that will heal very quickly. If I go to the hospital, there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble. Do you know what I'm talking about?" Long Chen's voice was low.

As Li Yuechan heard this, her thoughts extended to another issue. "What if Ning Haoran tries to frame you? What would you do?"

"He wouldn't dare," Long Chen answered. "If they investigate this matter, he will be in trouble too. Besides, I can choose to end his life here to prevent any troubles in the future." Killing intent surged in Long Chen's eyes. Ning Haoran's actions had crossed Long Chen's bottom line.

Li Yuechan got startled when she heard Long Chen's words. "Don't do anything stupid. Those people you knocked out aren't dead yet. If you kill Ning Haoran, you'll be in real trouble, and I don't want you to be in trouble. Let's live a good life together from now on, okay?"

"Huh?" Long Chen stared at her in surprise.

Li Yuechan wrapped her arms around him. "You didn't hear it wrong. I'm willing to fulfill my duties as your wife. Your real wife."

"Did I... Did I hear it wrong?"

"Honey," Li Yuechan called.

Long Chen shuddered. He could feel the blood in his body flowing at a rapid speed. The mysterious energy surged and sped up the healing of his wounds. He could feel the change. Moreover, the mysterious power in his body seemed to have grown stronger.

Could it be that emotions affect this energy? Long Chen thought to himself as if he had reached the threshold of a profound mystery.

"Do you believe what I said now, honey?" Li Yuechan called him again. She meant her words from the bottom of her heart. The image of him saving her by risking his life had moved her deeply, the memory branded as a mark indefinitely in her bone.

"Honey, I trust you." Long Chen hugged her back in excitement.

"You big idiot. You took a knife and cut yourself. Let's head home, and I'll find you a private doctor, so no hospital it is, then. We'll get you treated at home. We have the money, and we can get whatever we need," Li Yuechan said gently. It was the first time she got so gentle with Long Chen.

"Wait for me outside. I'll take care of this mess," Long Chen said.

"You're already hurt. What's there to deal with? How do you want to do this? Let me help you..."

"Trust me, be good and wait outside." His gaze was firm.

"Alright, I'll wait for you outside. But you have to promise me that you won't do anything stupid and won't kill anyone," Li Yuechan instructed.

"Don't worry, honey. I'm looking forward to our future. I won't do anything stupid." He let out a bright smile.

"Then hurry up. I'll wait for you in the cab." Li Yuechan exited the KTV.

Long Chen advanced to the unconscious Ning Haoran. Of course, he wouldn't let him off that easily! No one shall cross his bottom line.
